Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Toasted Breadcrumbs
Tender chickpea pasta and lean chicken breast are tossed in a creamy, protein-packed cheese sauce and topped with a golden, crispy panko crust.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta elbows
3 oz Chicken breast
0.25 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
0.5 cup Cauliflower florets
1 tbsp Panko breadcrumbs
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.13 tsp Sea salt
0.13 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Nutritional yeast
1 tsp Dijon mustard
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling water according to package directions, adding the finely chopped cauliflower florets for the last 3 minutes of cooking. Drain well.
While the pasta cooks, dice the cooked chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar cheese, Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Fold the cooked pasta, cauliflower, and diced chicken into the yogurt sauce until every piece is thoroughly coated.
Transfer the mixture into a small oven-safe ramekin or baking dish.
Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the pasta mixture.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the breadcrumbs have turned a beautiful golden brown.
